About This Quiz
Spirituality differs from religion. It differs from faith. It's a thing all on its own. Religion is about believing in a deity and learning to live your life by guidelines and beliefs laid out in the texts of a given religion. Being spiritual is more about tapping into your deeper self and learning to connect to other humans and living things on a non-physical level. Have you ever felt like things were just going your way and the universe was sending positive things your way? That is what spirituality is about. No books, no preaching, just living and loving.
Spirituality and religion aren't mutually exclusive either. You can have a belief in a god or higher being but also have something else you believe in. The universe works in mysterious ways, and so do people. If you've never considered yourself spiritual, thinks about a few things. Have you ever cared about something else more than you've cared about yourself? Do material things not give you nearly as much pleasure as being out in nature surrounded by the beauty of the earth? Have your priorities shifted as you've gotten older and wiser? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you are a spiritual being. But how much? Take this quiz, and we'll guess!
